The ENS entrance exam

The competitive entrance examination is mainly open to students who have completed a two-year course of study in the preparatory classes for the grandes écoles. Candidates may also apply if they can prove, at the time of admission to the School, that they have either the baccalauréat or a diploma or degree that is exempt from or equivalent to it. Persons holding a diploma corresponding to 240 ECTS units (European Credit Transfer System) cannot be authorized to compete.

There is no age limit.
